Broken Control Panel, White noise from speakers

I noticed a few weeks ago that some of links/buttons in the control panel no longer function.
They're there, but when clicked, nothing happened. I assumed this was just because I needed to restart or something and haven't really paid much attention since.

Yesterday I started getting white noise from my speakers, making the volume quieter....
I've also noticed that if I plug in speakers externally, they make that noise you get when you put a mic next to speakers... screeching.

I've read here somewhere that it was with some bit of software called OPUS that messed up the control panel ? But I have nothing like that installed

Hi AdamYip,

· Have you made any recent changes on the computer?

For the control panel issue I would suggest that you check if the issue persists in the safe mode.
Start your computer in safe mode

Restart the computer to get back to the normal mode

For the sound issue on the computer I would suggest that you manually download and install the update audio drivers by visiting the audio card manufacturer or the computer manufacturer website.
